About Melissa

I am a NASM certified personal trainer, pharmacist and functional wellness coach who has a passion for fitness, toxin-free living, gut and hormone health, and all things lifestyle wellness!

I’m here to support perimenopausal women who are in their 40’s (give or take a few years) who might be struggling with low energy, sleepless nights, anxiety and constant overwhelm, brain fog, bloating, hot flashes, muscle loss, and excess weight that won’t budge. As we age, our hormones begin to naturally decline, and these changes can be felt physically, mentally, and emotionally as the body physiologically changes. It can take you on what literally feels like a roller coaster ride of crazy highs and crazy lows. Truthfully, the years in our 40’s are a pivotal time in a woman’s life to lovingly seize the opportunity to get your stress, sleep, nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle habits on track so that you can FEEL like your best self.

With training in functional medicine, nutrition, and women’s health coaching, I help women optimize their health from the inside out. I focus on individualized functional fitness programming, optimizing gut health, hormone balance, nourishing your body with whole foods, supporting detoxification and minimizing your toxin exposure, working on quality sleep, healthful stress management, and building healthy habits with restorative lifestyle strategies.

My goal is to work from a place of trust, education, inspiration, and empowerment so that you can take control of your health step-by-step to sustainably make choices that build your wellness!
